Hi... I'm nearly a complete newbie. I'm trying to make some font into something that looks like the old Superman title credits... no animation required. I get the basic 3D done, but can't finish the job. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance...
Hi
In older versions (CC2018) I would have advised doing this with 3D volume rather than 3D extrusion which would give a better effect - but in CC2019 3D volume is broken.
You could however - use an extrusion to get something close
Add a bevel to the extrusion - this will give the edge to the letters
Set the opacity of the front inflation material, back inflation and back bevel to 0 to make them transparent (Turn all other values to 0)
Lower the opacity of the extrusion material ( I used 21%)
Set the diffuse value of all materials to black
Set the Illumination of the front bevel and extrusion to blue
IAfter rendering add a glow in layer effects.
If the colour is not what you need just add a Hue and Sat /curves adjustment layer above it and adjust
You can straighten the letters using a smart object and Transform Perspective.
I hope that helps you
Dave
